Revival in Our Time?

Notes: Revival in Our Time?

Jonah Ch 3 and 4 

Aug 11, 2013

God punished Jonah out of love not out of anger.

1. Gods chastening is out of his love for his children.

Revival starts with me. Nothing can happen through me until it has happened to me.

Jonah 3:3-10

Pray for the wicked by name, God can save them.

2. We need to attempt great things for God and expect great things from God.

Psalm 85:6 (KJV)

Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?

Habakkuk 3:2 (KJV)

O Lord , I have heard thy speech, and was afraid: O Lord , revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.

Revival is a new beginning of obedience to God.

Revival is for believers only.

Acts 26:28 (KJV)

Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.

There are a lot of "almost" Christians.

Jonah 4:1-11

Jonah was burning with anger that God spared the Ninavites.

Luke 15: 28-32
